From the Oct. 30, 2008 edition of the Journal.

E

xcuse me. I’ve been hibernating. I remember the day I fell into a slumber. It was Nov. 8, the night I wrote my last column. No, it wasn’t just Trump but the sort of family medical issues that compel a person to say, “Eff the whole world outside my house. I don’t care anymore.” Gone the very next day were Anderson Cooper, all TV news and most websites, too, except a quick online peek at New York Times headlines. I used to chide young people who say they get their news from comedy shows (really?) but I was right there with them on the couch these past two months. Late Night host Stephen Colbert somehow kept me sane. This election was not my first rodeo. My first was 1960. I was in high school and that one turned out pretty well. “Ask not what your country can do for you …” I couldn’t actually vote for him yet but he spoke to me. By 1964, I was out in the real world working (no money for college). I was one of two people in our office cubicles at the U.S. Naval Ordnance Test Station in Pasadena who was supporting Lyndon Johnson. The other two dozen cubicle-mates were intelligent, young, passionate, Republican-leaning scientists who thought Goldwater was just fine. (I

later married one of them — let’s just say, he converted — and we’ve been together for 52 years.) We’ve had some really terrible presidents in my lifetime. Richard Nixon not only was a crook (he knowingly broke laws while in office), it was recently confirmed that he actively worked to scuttle a peace deal Johnson had going late in his presidency that could have ended the Vietnam War. Instead, the war dragged on for years. What a devastating revelation to those whose loved ones were killed or wounded post-1968. (You can peruse H.R. Haldeman’s notes regarding Nixon’s orders on The New York Times website.) More recently I was my mother’s caregiver for the last years of her life and we had plenty of time for long talks. When she finally died in 2006, she said she was OK with the lymphoma that was taking her bit by bit, but what really upset her was that she would not live long enough to see George W. Bush out of office. She didn’t care who came next. Anybody had to be better. I am an old-school reporter and reporters weren’t supposed to have opinions. No bumper stickers on your car or briefcase.

No lawn signs. I had been successful so far in my journalistic career here in Humboldt County because I always knew when to change hats and tell readers I’m changing hats. Now I’m a columnist. Now I’m a reporter. In any case, in 2008 I took a leave of absence to volunteer for Obama. I was told at an organizational meeting to forget the entire West Coast. He’s not going to win unless he could take Colorado or New Mexico, or both. Just get there if you can and work your tail off, we were told.

In 2008 my tail was 61 years old. I had a sister in Colorado who had a couch. I went. Never worked harder in my life, seven days a week for five weeks. Knocking on doors is not bad. In fact after you get used to it, it’s a rush. People are absolutely fascinating. Every house has a story. In Craig, Colorado, we stared poor, white rural poverty in the face every day. Only once did a guy turn his dog loose on me. Every day I came dragging back to my sister’s place and thought just one,

maybe two people might have changed their minds that day. I could talk to people about Obama and guns. (“I come from Humboldt. Everybody has guns!”) I could talk to them about a senseless war that sent their neighbors and brothers to Iraq to die. I tried and always failed to talk to them about coal. In the end, Coloradoans begrudgingly gave Obama a few percentage points more than John Kerry four years previous. That tipped the state and the election for him.

So much is being written these days about the Obama legacy. (Bears Ears National Monument in Utah, anyone? Awesome.) But what directly did he do for me here in Humboldt County? Name one thing. Well, he helped us grow this business, the North Coast Journal. The Affordable Care Act (I’m OK with calling it Obamacare) was really good for our company. Because the Journal is a small business and we paid for employees’ medical insurance, we received tax credits every year from 2010 through 2015. What did we do with that money? We hired more people or we gave raises. We printed more pages. We kept expanding every year. We started to make a consistent profit. Finally, when the rates from our private medical insurance provider skyrocketed in just one year, 2015, we stopped providing medical coverage and helped every employee sign up for Covered California, the state’s version of the Affordable Care Act, or private insurance. It’s working for them and it’s working for us as a small company. What brought me out of my hibernation? Passage of time, plus I’m a news addict. I started listening to NPR on my long walks. I slowly started thumbing through the growing pile of magazines — Time and The Atlantic — in my living room. I turned the TV news back on to catch snippets. (Oh, I missed you, Fareed Zakaria.) Then I caught Obama’s farewell speech. Damn him! He was talking directly to me. “For those of you young or young at heart, don’t despair. Don’t sit on the sidelines …” Blah, blah. He even called me a citizen. So on Tuesday of this week I’m going to an organizing meeting at a private home in Eureka (there is one in Arcata, I hear, too) to try to figure out how we, as citizens, can respond to each and every assault this new president will launch against the progress this country has made these past eight years. No, he can’t take us back to 1981 or whatever year he fantasizes about. We’ve evolved and we’re not going back. This is our country, our flag and our values. As a nation, we do have a moral compass. And it does not resemble his. I know there are locals heading to Washington, D.C. for the Women’s March this weekend. Good for you. I wish you well. For those of us staying in Humboldt, I hope to see you at the local March Saturday, Jan. 21 at 1 p.m., foot of C Street. Get off your couch. Grab an umbrella. You’re tough, Humboldt. Let this new president hear from us. l Editor’s note: Check back next week for the Journal’s coverage of the inauguration, the Women’s March in Washington, D.C. and its sister march in Eureka.

Seeing Clearly

Editor: That nutty Professor Levine, what a big softy! Referring to Ms. Angus’ rumored desire to replace Judge Watson on our local bench, he says the appellate opinion “in itself may not be disqualifying … .” Jeepers Professor, what does a lawyer have to do around here to prove she shouldn’t be a judge? Murder somebody? More to the point, what does she have to do to prove she shouldn’t be a lawyer, or at least a lawyer we have to pay? In 2015 we paid her 150K, all told. And she’s not just a lowly deputy county counsel either; she’s THE Assistant County Counsel, Mr. Blanck’s right hand ma-a-a-a-a-a- person. Here’s the County Counsel’s Mission Statement: “The Office of the County Counsel is committed to providing the highest quality of legal advice, representation and — “wait, go back: “highest quality?” Really? Oh, this must be the part that applies to Ms. Angus: “The Office is committed to providing creative legal assistance….” I guess she was just being, uh, creative. Give that woman a robe and a gavel!

Remembering Amber Editor: I am overwhelmed again with the deep life-changing, tragic loss of my daughter Amber Slaughter. My heart is running, my belly is tight and working on trying to hold back the flood of tears that hide behind my eyes. On January 23, 1994, Amber was murdered by three young men all under the age of 18, who drove her to the South Jetty and ended her life. My father would have accompanied members of the Loleta fire department who responded to a call from a man who nudged her body lying in the road. Thankfully he was taking care of his mother that night at her apartment and was not one of the valiant first responders. Amber’s sisters, parents, uncle, grandparents and community members also dredge up this tragedy with varying levels of emotional distress when January 23 approaches. Unfortunately, we continue to live with murder and mayhem in our world. Please join me for an extra prayer for peace on this day in Amber’s name. Francine Schulman, Eureka

McKinleyVOTE Editor: A special election is coming up in McKinleyville soon, for a vacated seat on

the Board of the McKinleyville Community Services District (MCSD). If you are one of the several thousand registered voters in McKinleyville, your mail ballots should be arriving by mid-February. This will be a mail-only ballot. I am giving my whole-hearted support in this election to Mary Burke, who is a great example of a young person working hard to make a difference in our community. Mary serves as an active volunteer on the Recreation Advisory Committee for MCSD, as well as working as a valued natural resource professional in our area. Mary will make an outstanding new member of the MCSD Board. She has my backing because of her excellent qualifications, her seriousness of purpose about MCSD responsibilities and her commitment to fiscal responsibility and the safety and improvement of our open spaces and trails. Also, as a parent of a young child, Mary knows the importance of clean water, recreational opportunities and a safe community for the future. Mary will have my vote and, if you live in McKinleyville, I hope your vote too. Please mark your mail-in ballot for Mary Burke in the upcoming MCSD Special Election. Catherine B. Hanafi, McKinleyville

Editor: Kimberly Wear has written a chilling article about an out-of control prosecution (“Profoundly Disturbing,” Jan. 12). The rights of the public to be protected and the rights of the public to protect themselves seem to have been confounded. To make some sense of this we must separate being a public crusader from advancing a personal agenda. As scientists we are warned that use of the term “clearly” is a strong signal that what follows is anything but. Yet in County Counsel Blair Angus’ behavior we see actions that are clearly not in the best interests of the target of her efforts. Despite it being demonstrated multiple times that her actions were misguided, she persisted in placing her own preferences over the “clear” intentions of Dick Magney. Independent of considerations of wasting tax dollars and clogging up the courts with frivolous suits, we may still ask: What was Angus’ intention? Was she aiming to pursue justice or to sensationalize a situation to promote her position for a judgeship? It really doesn’t matter: She has disqualified herself from even holding her present position, even if her superiors insisted she engage in this travesty. And if she is not to tarnish the entire County Counsel’s office, she should resign. Larry Hourany, McKinleyville

Narcissism Editor: In Greek mythology, Narcissus was the proud son of a river god and a nymph, and one who disdained others. Nemesis saw this behavior and attracted Narcissus to a pool where he saw his own reflection and fell in love with it — that is himself. Today, the Narcissistic personality is recognized as a personality disorder by The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and is characterized by “exaggerated feelings of self-importance, an excessive need for admiration and a lack of understanding of others’ feelings … and appears to occur more often in males … .” According to the manual, DSM-5 symptoms of individuals with NPD typically include: 1. Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from others. 2. Fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness. 3. Self perception of being unique, superior. 4. Needing constant admiration from others. 5. Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others. 6. Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain. 7. Unwilling [or unable] to empathize with others.

A Beloved Teacher Editor: I enjoyed the interview with Lenny Escarda’s daughter Peri Escarda, in the January 5 edition of the Journal. It’s clear that Peri’s father was an inspiration to her. I knew Mr. Escarda while he taught at McKinleyville High School. He seemed to always have a smile to share and if you had a problem, he was willing to find the time to discuss it. Years after graduation, when we encountered each other, he would call me by name. This, even though he had taught numerous students after I left. Peri Escarda was lucky to have him as a father and I was fortunate to have him as a friend. As he inspired his daughter, he was an inspiration to his many students. Scott R. Baker, McKinleyville

Humboldt Harbor: The Heart of Our Community By Uri Driscoll

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

H

umboldt Bay is the heart of our community. Its pulse is the rhythm of the tides. Each tide disperses everything from micronutrients that sustain vital natural resources to cargo destined for international commerce. There are unwritten natural laws and there are legislated laws that guide us through the decision-making process for utilizing our incredibly valuable resource, the port of Humboldt. The Humboldt Bay Harbor, Recreation and Conservation District was created by a legislative act that set parameters to ensure that decisions we make consider the health of our economy along with the health of natural ecosystems. The District’s mandate is to “provide and develop port and harbor facilities for the benefit of the people,” and for “the development and protection of natural resources.” At this year’s Humboldt Bay Symposium, a variety of topics centered around the developing science of anticipated sea level rise. What was acknowledged throughout the two-day session was that long-term planning is going to be very difficult. For instance, how would you tell a property owner or land manager that they can or can’t develop vital economic or environmental projects based on relatively new science and an untested model of sea level rise projections? Planning on horizons 50 or 100 years in advance is unprecedented. Everything from environmental restoration projects, coastal-based affordable housing and international commerce are essentially being thrown into a regulatory quagmire. One example relating to restoration projects is the eradication of Spartina densiflora. Spartina is a sediment-trapping and topography-building plant that can collect enough sediment to keep up with sea level rise, according to initial studies. Some of these plants targeted for removal provide incredibly valuable coastal protections and replacing

those protections would be very costly. Conservation of beneficial and established habitats may be wiser than attempting to recreate habitats that may have existed 150 years ago. Redirecting the resources spent on those eradication projects would effectively free up millions of dollars to work toward coastal protection and adaptation goals.

Adding a visitor’s train to showcase our spectacular bay would be icing on the cake. Hats off to the Timber Heritage Association for their efforts to bring our community the enjoyment of their popular speeder rail car rides. We possess the vital opportunity to use our resources to enhance our productive harbor and protect our vibrant bay. We cannot afford to keep looking back and attempting to recreate a past that is long gone. We can have international commerce, abundant agriculture, aquaculture, coastal protections and thriving wildlife, as well as significant recreational opportunities. From my perspective, we need to start by trusting ourselves. We need to not just compromise but collaborate. It also means that we must recognize the tools we need to work with and grow more proficient with using them. Those tools include established legislative guidelines as well as our abundant natural, cultural and intellectual resources. We can do this. l — Uri Driscoll is a professional horseman and farrier.

hile the Queen Annestyle house at 1635 G St. is considered to be one of Eureka’s architectural gems, the once opulent two-story structure is now a shadow of its former self. The ornate exterior has fallen into disrepair with broken windows encased in plywood instead of glass. Hallways where Eureka’s elite once walked have seen squatters shooting up drugs while garbage piled up in the backyard, according to a city inspector and a District Attorney’s Office investigator who made multiple visits in response to tenant complaints. The nearly 130-year-old former private residence has been converted into a boarding house. Several of the individual rooms are missing doors. In one, an open umbrella hung outstretched from the ceiling in an attempt capture water leaking

from the roof. In another, according to the inspection reports, a bare lightbulb dangled from an electrical cord. The property is one of 26 owned by Floyd and Betty Squires that are undergoing, awaiting or have already been through repairs after a judge placed the couple’s holdings into what’s known as a “receivership” in 2013 (“G Street Squat,” Nov. 24, 2016 and “Suing Squires,” Sept. 1, 2016). While the 1635 G St. home and others had been signed off as completed in that process, many have “now been returned to their unsafe and dilapidated condition with new additional code violations,” due to the Squireses’ pattern of neglectful management practices, according to court documents filed by the city. Meanwhile, the properties in the most serious condition have not even begun repairs. At a hearing scheduled for Feb. 10, the

city will be asking Judge Dale Reinholtsen to completely wrest control of the properties away from the couple, stating in a strongly worded motion that failure to do so not only puts their tenants and the public in danger but also opens the court up to potential liability if someone is injured or a disaster were to occur. “It has come to the point where it is clear that (the Squireses) cannot properly maintain their properties, cannot timely conduct repairs, and cannot effectively complete such repairs, or keep their properties safe for the community and the tenants that reside at the properties,” the motion states. “(The Squireses) are merely permitted by the Court to continue their longstanding exploitation of their residents. And since the Court is responsible for the present condition of these

Eureka City Schools properties, it must take immediate action to remedy the code violations that still persist at Respondents’ properties.” The Squireses’ attorney, Bradford Floyd, said most of the city’s assertions were “fiction” and reiterated that “almost every property has been signed off by the city and the court.” “The city claims that they filed the motion because of the shooting that occurred at 1635 G St. (in December) and, yes, that happened. But I fail to see how that is Mr. Squires’ fault,” he said. “This has nothing to do with the good citizens of Eureka,” Floyd added, stating that much of the damage at 1635 G St. was caused by an angry tenant who broke out 16 windows and tore down part of a banister. “This has to do with the city of Eureka’s dislike of Mr. Squires and trying to financially ruin him.” One of the main issues, according to the city, is the hybrid system that Reinholtsen agreed to in the Squireses’ case, which veers from the traditional method of giving a receiver complete control over the abatement process — including the ability to take out loans on a property and collect rent to pay for repairs. Instead, the Squireses have continued to oversee projects with receiver Jeff Smith outlining the work that needs to be done and reporting back to the court on the progress. For his part, Smith said that he can understand the city’s position but “I work for the court.” “I do what the court directs me to do, not more or less,” he said. Meanwhile, six years has passed since the city first filed for a receivership over the 26 properties in January of 2011, citing persistent “substandard and unsafe conditions.” Over the course of 2016, attorneys for Eureka filed two other times to take the Squireses out of the equation.

Email us Here:

Now the attorneys for Eureka are asking once again: Either put Smith fully in charge or get another receiver. “It’s obviously been a long, drawn out process to get where we are and then to have properties revert back to very similar positions, for the most part right after being signed off, is problematic,” said Brian Gerving, Eureka’s public works director and chief building inspector. “The goal of a receivership is to quickly and comprehensively — and once and for all — resolve violations at the properties,” he said. “Six years into the case, it’s just not working out that way.” According to the city, the filing of the motion was prompted not only by the December shooting at 1635 G St. but the continued delays, backward progress and the Squireses’ continued inability to properly manage their properties. That includes, Gerving said, making hazardous repairs without permits or inspections as recently as last week after a subpanel caught fire at 1625 G St., just next door to the Queen Anne home. Meanwhile, G Street neighbors have taken to writing the couple to express their concerns and circulating a petition. The latter apparently caught the attention of Floyd Squires, who appears to have left notes for some of his tenants. Squires did not return a phone call seeking comment and Floyd, his attorney, said he was not aware of the communications. “Your name is on a petition to vacate the building at 1625 G Street due to drugs and bad tenants,” reads the typed note on Humboldt Bay Properties letterhead with Squires’ name and signature. “You are one of the tenants. Who brought you the petition to sign and WHAT did they say to you? Your prompt attention is appreciated.” ●

Cannabis, Stress, and Health

t has been long established that heightened levels of stress can have a negative impact on health, yet many of us lead a stressful life day to day. Whether it be a rough day at work, balancing the family life, missing sleep, financial hurdles, preparing for tests, or even reading the news, Americans’ modern lifestyles have become increasingly stressful. Our culture is also experienced in masking our fatigue through stimulants, artificial lights, and even drug use. This only compounds the issues of stress and can create negative impacts on health. The amygdala is a portion of the brain that controls memory, decision making, and emotional reactions. It is one of the many parts of the brain affected by high levels of stress. When we over stimulate our amygdala, there can be negative health impacts, including increased risks for cardiovascular disease and increased inflammation. Many Americans develop such serious stress issues that they must visit their doctors in the hope of finding some relief. Antidepressants are commonly prescribed, and while they may work for some, many individuals experience side effects that include sexual dysfunction, weight gain, and sleep disturbance. When searching for an alternative, some individuals explore medical cannabis as a natural medicine to help reduce stress and anxiety. While cannabis may be a helpful tool, it is a drug that also can come with side effects and should be used responsibly. THC and CBD can offer a sense of relaxation, calming, and well being for many

patients when used at a low dose. Conversely, high doses of THC can actually increase the perception of stress and anxiety. This is referred to as the Biphasic effects of cannabis. In addition, cannabis is not a cure all for stress, but when used in conjunction with a healthy diet, increased physical activity, quality sleep, and even meditation, many patients feel a reduction to their levels of stress and an improvement to their life. At HPRC patients can access a wide range of medical cannabis products that may help address stress and anxiety. When looking for cannabis flowers, be conscious of the THC and CBD content, and which terpenes are most dominant. Beta caryophyllene, linalool, and humulene are terpenes that can assist in reducing stress. Higher CBD content (x>1%) and lower THC (x<15%) has been indicated by our patients to be helpful in lowering levels of stress. If choosing orally ingested forms of cannabis stay below 1 mg of THC if you are a new user and wait up to two hours for the full effects to be present. Patients should not neglect the benefits of physical activity on the endocannabinoid system. Working out and increasing the inter-

nal production of natural cannabinoids like anandamide can be as beneficial as consuming medical cannabis. A healthy relationship with cannabis, the mind, and the body has improved the lives of many patients at HPRC.

Week in Weed

The Cannabis Conundrum Where drugs and medicine collide By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

W

hen I began my brief career as a drug and alcohol counselor (2010-2012), I had learned to define sobriety along some pretty stark lines: Either you were abstinent from all psychoactive substances or you weren’t. Sober people don’t take medicine that doesn’t have their name on the label. Sober people don’t occasionally take psilocybin mushroom to fast-track their spiritual growth. And sober people don’t smoke weed, even though it’s “just a plant,” it’s medicine and is rarely habit-forming. (Actually, it’s more habit-forming than most people think, but we’ll get to that later.) These tenets were rooted in common sense and the hard-won experience of recovering addicts. As anyone who has struggled with addiction or loved an addict knows, defining what constitutes a relapse and then sticking to that definition can be very important, and blurring the lines by experimenting with any mind-altering substance or even behavior (such as sex or gambling) can lead to a full relapse with one’s drug of choice. Sublime summed this up more succinctly in their 1996 song “What I Got”: “I don’t get angry when my mom smokes pot/ Hits the bottle and goes back to the rock.” But what I found when I actually began working with addicts and alcoholics is that success in recovery often relied on letting my clients define the terms of that success. And I was lucky enough to work for a program that didn’t demand our clients practice complete abstinence outside of attending our classes and therapy groups. I still recommended complete abstinence, 12-step groups and ongoing therapy, but I also learned that if clients started going to the gym instead of going to the bar, or if someone switched from methamphetamine to marijuana, and their lives improved, and they called it a win, I could call it a win, too. This philosophy, loosely defined as harm reduction, is beginning to gain more ground in addiction treatment. But most programs still use complete abstinence as the yardstick by which success is measured. (For the record, if you’re an addict or alcoholic, I still recommend all of the same things I suggested when working in treatment.) Which brings us to weed. It’s a sticky topic in the recovery community, especially

here in Humboldt County. The industry and recovery are often difficult to reconcile. On more than one occasion I had to ask clients to leave groups when they arrived smelling of their work, because I was worried it would trigger other group members. I know people who have maintained a successful recovery for decades despite growing pot and others who habitually relapse because they’re lured back to old friends and old habits during the trim season. Recently, Rolling Stone ran an article about medical marijuana and its lack of acceptance in the recovery community. Although federal regulations have prevented extensive study and approval by the Federal Food and Drug Administration, cannabinols have been shown to help with a wide spectrum of physical and emotional problems, and their medical benefits can often be separated out from their recreational highs. I have a couple of theories as to why there is reluctance to embrace medical marijuana in the recovery community, some of which is based on my own former ignorance. First, I think that many of us were introduced to the idea of “medical marijuana” as a backdoor way for people to smoke the stuff recreationally, before the current sophistication of strictly medicinal CBD. In line with the afore-mentioned warning about how “sober people don’t take medicine that doesn’t have their name on the label,” recovering addicts might righteously feel dubious about using anything that requires going down to their local dispensary. Cannabis was once a common ingredient in patent medicines, but for most of modern memory it has been a prohibited, stigmatized stoney gateway drug. I would still be reluctant to recommend its use to anyone who is in recovery. But I have also seen many people relapse and die after taking drugs that do have their names on the label, particularly opiates. Medical cannabis is now being prescribed to address chronic pain and other issues traditionally treated with highly addictive narcotics. So, should medical cannabis be formally reclassified by recovery professionals? Can it be totally separated from its relapse-triggering stoney properties? And is cannabis really addictive? Is it a gateway drug? In short order, my answers: Probably, probably not, yes and yes, but not in the way you think. Buckle up, because next week we’re talking about neurochemistry. l northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 19, 2017

The Return of the California Condor

T

he Yurok Tribe is leading a major effort to restore a bird that hasn’t been seen on the North Coast for over a century. The tribe teamed up with a number of agencies, including PG&E, the National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife and the National Park Foundation to restore the California condor population. The National Park Service is seeking public comments on Jan. 24, at the Wharfinger Building, in Eureka. This public meeting will be one of five taking place in the coming weeks on the restoration project. “The condor has played a major part in Yurok ceremonies and culture since time immemorial,” said Thomas P. O’Rourke Sr., chairman of the Yurok Tribe, in a press release. “It is through collaborative projects like this that we will bring balance back to our natural world.” The condors will be released into the Yurok ancestral territory located in Redwood National Park. Over the next few years the project will involve the construction of a condor release facility in Redwood National Park as well as the

development of a GIS database for Humboldt and surrounding California counties. The project will also include the design of a remote tracking and monitoring system to better understand flight and habitat patterns of the condor. The number of California condors hit an all-time low during the 1980s, when there were only 22 individual birds left. A number of factors, lead poisoning believed to be among them, nearly led the animal to extinction. In December of 2015, there were over 400 counted condors both in captivity and in the wild. PG&E said in a press release that this project will allow condors to regain their foothold in their former Northern California range and further strengthen the condor population overall. “In our role as energy provider to millions of Californians, we’re committed to working in ways that protect the habitat for the majestic condors and all of our state’s wonderful diversity of species,” PG&E Corporation Chairman and CEO Tony Earley said in a press release. — Sam Armanino Posted 1.17.17 Read the full story online.

Nurses, Stat With a program shuttered and increasing demand, officials scramble for solutions to Humboldt County’s looming nursing crisis By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

Y

ou’ve probably heard a story about a friend or loved one who went to the emergency room in Humboldt County and had to wait hours to be seen. Or maybe after getting into the ER, he or she was transferred to an intensive care unit out of the area. “Not enough beds,” “not enough doctors,” go the tired and true refrains. But those are far from the only or the most frequent limiting factors. “There are beds in the county — plenty of hospital beds in the county — there just aren’t the nurses available to give you care,” explained Sara Isaacson, chief nursing officer at Mad River Community Hospital. As an example, Isaacson pointed to the hospital’s intensive care unit, which

has enough rooms to accommodate six patients but has to be staffed with a nurse per every two patients. When the hospital can only find two nurses to work an ICU shift, it has to limit ICU admissions to four patients, meaning anyone else will have to be sent to another hospital or held in emergency discharge until a patient leaves the ICU. “That’s the game that sometimes goes on all day long,” Isaacson said. “There is a bed, there just isn’t a bed with a nurse attached to it. Every day, it’s a limiting factor and it’s hard because on the horizon, it doesn’t look better.” The official numbers put Humboldt County just on the cusp of designation as a “registered nursing shortage area” by the California Office of Statewide Health Plan-

ning and Development (OSHPD). But just about everyone in the local health care industry concedes there is a shortage, one that impacts patient care, hospital staffing and provider budgets. And the numbers indicate Humboldt’s problem is getting worse, and fast. Back in 2010, the county had about 1,500 registered nurses, according to data from OSHPD. By 2012, that number had dipped to 1,483. Two years later, it fell to 1,451. In 2015 it came in at 1,401, marking a 7 percent drop over six years. “It’s been pretty steady,” said Pat Farmer, a local nurse practitioner who works as a nurse expert consultant for the Center to Champion Nursing in America, a national initiative working to improve healthcare through better use of

the nursing workforce. “I think it’s a very substantial problem.” While exacerbated by a number of factors, Humboldt County’s trend isn’t unique and many — including Farmer and Isaacson — feel a national nursing shortage isn’t far off. According to a 2014 report by the American Nursing Association, 53 percent of the nation’s almost 3 million working nurses were over the age of 50. Many believe a national nursing crisis was simply delayed by the great recession, which kept many in the workforce longer than they’d planned and sent others scurrying out of retirement. Humboldt County, with its rural isolation and socio-economic challenges, also Continued on page 19 »

THE NORTH COAST’S COMPLETE

And the numbers indicate Humboldt’s problem is getting worse, and fast. Back in 2010, the county had about 1,500 registered nurses, according to data from OSHPD. By 2012, that number had dipped to 1,483. Two years later, it fell to 1,451. In 2015 it came in at 1,401, marking a 7 percent drop over six years.

faces a unique set of hurdles. Those were made worse back in 2011 when Humboldt State University, in the midst of an intense budget crunch, shuttered its nursing program, closing a supply line that had been graduating about 60 students a year into the local community with Bachelor of Science degrees in nursing. College of the Redwoods, meanwhile, sends about 60 graduates into the nursing workforce annually with associates’ degrees, but area hospitals and medical facilities are already hurting from HSU’s closure. “We cut the supply chain in half,” Farmer explained. “It just defies common sense to think that’s not going to have a substantial impact.” Now, six years later, it appears there’s a universal recognition of the need for a program that will both bring more nurses into the local workforce and give the ones here opportunities for advanced education. To that end, Connie Stewart, executive director of HSU’s California Center for Rural Policy, said the North Coast Health Leadership Team — a regional group of healthcare and human services CEOs — recently discussed

Back in 2011,

when then Humboldt State University President Rollin Richmond announced in a campus-wide email that the school’s decades-old nursing program would shut down, the program was at once successful and foundering. Its graduates were universally hailed as well trained and prepared to enter the workforce. The program was impacted, with a line of students waiting to get in, and it was one of the few at HSU — or most other places — in which graduates could grab their diplomas and walk into the real world with virtual certainty they would find a job in their chosen field. But the program was also clearly dysfunctional. It had been having a terrible time recruiting tenure-track faculty. Even worse, according to then HSU Provost Bob Snyder, the program, when given an ex-

emption from a campus-wide hiring freeze in 2010, its administrators failed to put together a committee or come up with hiring criteria. When asked to formulate a plan with clear goals and benchmarks for improvement, the program submitted nothing. A couple of months before Richmond’s email, the program director, Martha Libster, who had been handpicked by administrators just a few months earlier from out of state to come in and lead the department, resigned citing a hostile work environment. At that point, the program had already been given a reprieve. In the spring of 2010, with HSU facing a massive, recession-fueled budget deficit, administrators were looking to cut the school’s academic affairs budget by $7 million and asked the Academic Senate to recommend program eliminations totaling $1.3 million. Nursing was at an automatic disadvantage in this process, which asked faculty members to choose which programs — and which colleagues’ jobs — to cut.

The nursing program cost the university about $900,000 annually (nursing programs are inherently expensive because they require extensive in-the-field supervision) making it far and away one of the most costly on campus. If the senate chose to save nursing, it would have had to cut a plethora of other programs to arrive at the same savings. So in April of 2010, the senate recommended that nursing get the ax. But a community outcry ensued, with local hospitals, editorials and elected officials all pointing out the desperate need for the program and its great value to the county as a whole. Richmond granted the program a reprieve but it was clearly on thin ice. Just about nine months later, its fate was sealed. At the time, many close to the program felt HSU administrators — tired of the department’s internal turmoil and its high price tag — had simply allowed the program to wither on the vine, refusing to intervene when it was clearly struggling. (For his part, Snyder said it would have been inappropriate for administrators to step in and guide hiring processes or help the department formulate a plan to save itself.) Whatever the exact reasons and motivations, the program shuttered, with its last graduates crossing the Redwood Bowl

stage in 2012. “It’s water under the bridge,” said Pat Gircyc, director of CR’s nursing program at the time. “Let’s look at where we are now and what we need to do in this totally changing landscape.”

Health care has changed dramatically

in recent decades. People are living longer — and living longer with chronic diseases. And there have been dramatic advances to make surgeries less invasive: While having a knee replaced used to require a weeklong hospitalization, patients now often go home the next day. Someone getting a gall bladder surgery, which once required a 10-day stay, today might go home as soon as the anesthesia wears off. These advances have changed nursing in two fundamental ways. First, it has pushed some of the demand for nurses out of hospitals and into homes and rehabilitation facilities. Second, it has made hospital work much more complex. “People in the hospital are just a lot sicker than they used to be,” Gircyc said. This means the demands of nursing education have also changed. There are three routes to becoming a registered nurse in Continued on page 22 »

the United States: a three-year diploma program typically administered in a hospital; a three-year associates degree (AA) obtained through a community college; or a four-year baccalaureate degree (BSN) through a university. Graduates of all three programs need to take the same licensing exam to work as registered nurses. But the healthcare world is gradually demanding that more and more nurses get a BSN, which opens the door for advanced degrees and leadership roles. In fact, a BSN is now required to become a public health nurse or work for the VA Clinic. In California, Farmer said about 10 percent of employers require a BSN and 70 percent prefer one. And data seems to support the shift, as a host of studies have found that hospitals with more highly educated nursing staffs tend to have better patient outcomes — judged by everything from patient mortality to infection rates. This is certainly not to say that a nurse with a BSN degree is inherently better than one with an AA degree, but the data indicates that, on the whole, more education is a good thing. In fact, back in 2010, the Institute of Medicine released a landmark report calling for 80 percent of the nursing workforce to hold a BSN by 2020. This represents a unique challenge in Humboldt. With the closure of HSU’s program, the county lost about half of its nursing graduates entering the workforce. But it also lost 100 percent of its BSN nursing graduates. At the time, administrators at both CR and HSU said they recognized this need and pledged to work diligently to create some kind of distance learning program that would allow CR’s students to enroll in another California State University and pursue a BSN degree. For reasons that aren’t

entirely clear, no formal program was ever created but even such a so-called “bridge” program would only solve half of Humboldt County’s problem. “That’s not going to address the overall shortage of nurses,” Farmer said.

Almost five years after

HSU’s last nursing graduate entered the local workforce, the future of nursing in Humboldt County isn’t entirely clear. At Mad River Community Hospital, Isaacson said she’s constantly scrambling to find and hire nurses, even at a hospital that enjoys better retention numbers than most. Nurses are in such demand, Isaacson said, that the registry — or traveling — nurse industry is booming. This means there’s little to tie younger nurses down. If someone wants to spend time traveling, maybe working a few months and then taking a few months off, he or she can. “The millennial generation is so mobile,” she said. “And, if they’re good, they’ll have work whenever they want it.” This means that, in a pinch, Isaacson, St. Joseph Hospital and others will pay a registry agency $115 an hour to staff a nursing position for 13 weeks at a time. While this is far better than not having a nurse

to fill a shift, it’s far from ideal. The cost is exorbitant, and the shift is being filled with a nurse who was trained elsewhere and isn’t fully integrated with the facility or Humboldt County’s unique — and extensive — public health needs. While many options have been explored — Isaacson said Mad River Community Hospital even looked into buying up housing to offer up to traveling nurses with the hopes of luring them into staying a while on the North Coast but decided it would require too big of an investment — most come back to the need for some kind of opportunity for advanced nursing education locally. Gircyc said she personally sees a lot of momentum in this direction, saying that “it’s on everyone’s radar.” But, she said she doesn’t want to see HSU’s old program simply revived. “What we need is something really out of the box and innovative that meets the community needs,” she said. Most agree that this would be some kind of collaborative effort between CR, HSU and local healthcare providers. The ideal would be a program that allows CR’s nursing program, which has a lengthy waiting list, to increase enrollment in a partnership with HSU that would feed

graduates into a BSN program, where they could finish their last year or so of post-licensure classroom work to graduate with a BSN. This would prove less costly for HSU, as much of the expense of nursing programs comes from the first years, which require in-field supervision and low student-to-faculty ratios. Currently, there are a host of online BSN programs available to nurses working with an AA degree but it’s often hard for working nurses to return to school and, even when they do, they can run into requirements — like prerequisites — that necessitate their going back to school before enrolling. And even when working nurses do get into an online BSN program, they receive a generalized education that lends no Humboldt-specific perspective. A true partnership between a community college and a university streamlines this process, ensuring students can step directly from the AA program into a BSN while receiving a localized education at every step. It’s clear there is a problem in Humboldt County with a larger one on the horizon and they’re not going to resolve themselves. If Sara Isaacson is ever going to rest assured that her ICU will be filled to capacity with patients and the nurses to care for them, the community is going to need to find a solution. And Farmer, the national consultant who works locally and got her AA degree from CR, said that solution needs to come sooner rather than later. “I don’t think it’s going to take five to 10 to 15 years for the problem to blossom locally,” she said. “It’s pretty widely accepted that we are headed toward a pretty significant nursing shortage.” l

alists to be aware of because they’re easy to find and identify. “Once you start paying attention, you’ll see a pharmacy all around you,” de la Montagne muses. “Some of our most powerful medicines are growing out of the crack in the concrete.” Exhibiting the no-nonsense calm and wisdom of a true mountain woman, de la Montagne grew up expeditioning with her parents in Montana’s “big wild.” She learned early on that if something goes wrong out in the wilderness, you have to heal yourself with what’s at hand. Ecology was a big part of her life growing up in Montana but she discovered herbal medicine during treatment for a broken back sustained during training for the U.S. Olympic ski team. An educator and herbal medic, de la Montagne is founder of the Medicine for All Seeking Health and Healing (MASHH)

Clinic Collective, a coalition of street and forest EMT-certified women who respond to medical emergencies with herbal first aid. She is also an Ayurvedic practitioner and runs a massage therapy business out of her home. Above all, de la Montagne’s mission is to educate people about herbal medical practices that are, she says, all but lost to Western society. These skills, developed over thousands of years, are no longer passed from generation to generation. “How have we allowed that knowledge to be discarded?” she asks. “Allopathy has disempowered the people. We’re kind of helpless.” From severe burns to dysentery and birth control, de la Montagne maintains all can be approached affordably and easily Continued on next page »

with herbal treatment. Why spend thousands of dollars at the emergency room when age-old techniques would work, sometimes more effectively? And if things fall apart, we need to have the tools and the knowledge to take care of ourselves. Sound intriguing? Before you haul yourself out into the wilderness with your spade, there are a few things to consider. It’s important to be mindful when collecting plants in the wild. Ethics are a big deal. Some ground rules for wild harvesting include taking only one out of every five in a stand of plants. For more rare plants, take one out of every 25. With specimens that grow in circles, be sure to harvest the elders on the outside of the group first. If you’re after a plant that reseeds with the wind, you’ll want to harvest downslope so the ones at the top can keep reproducing downhill. Also consider what wild animals might be using a plant. Osha, for example, is a sought after herb for humans, but it’s also the first plant the bears dig up in the spring. “It’s important for their health,” says de la Montagne. “They’ve been sedentary all winter and they need it to get their blood moving.” Never gather plants in state or national parks, or on native lands where Native medicine practitioners often foster stands of herbs for tribal use. Remember, too, that other people are out there harvesting, so as a rule of thumb, try to go far away from other humans when you forage. While it’s acceptable to harvest commonly available herbs, de la Montagne suggests it’s best to leave rare plants for wild animals and skilled herbalists. Also important is the history of the site where you’re collecting. She says, “A lot of herbs grow along railroad beds but think of all those years with creosote leaking from the ties. … You also want to pay attention to logging landings, places where diesel got spilled or who knows what. It can be kind of a gamble; use your intuition.” Educating yourself before heading out to wildcraft herbs is a very good idea. “It’s not like you need a botany degree,” de la Montagne says, “but if someone isn’t paying attention, they could get into a lot of trouble misidentifying plants.” Some plants look scandalously alike — so much so that even experienced wildcrafters have met their doom mistaking poison hemlock for wild carrot. As the rain sweps in from the south, we hunker down in de la Montagne’s cozy herb kitchen to talk more about her work. On the counter is a pale green puff of usnea, collected after a recent windstorm. The bookshelves are stuffed with literature and a wall is lined with bottles, jars and all manner of intriguing concoctions. “This is

De la Montagne effuses over healing properties of the medicinal plants in her garden. She uses them for first aid, cooking and flea busting, or just to make things smell better. She tells me about the pennyroyal that grows in the ditch up the road and she touches the long strands of the silktassel that hang over the sage she uses in her goat cheese. De la Montagne hopes people will come to realize the value of taking health care into their own hands. What might heal us could well be growing in our own back yard. l

Easy-Peasy Chickpea and peanut stew By Louisa Rogers

tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com

A

month after we married in the late ’70s, my husband Barry Evans and I decided to stop eating meat. Which wasn’t that difficult because, although I was raised on fried chicken, Southern ham, pork chops and ribs, I never learned to cook meat myself. As a single woman in my 20s, the closest I came to meat was ordering chili at the corner diner. We had different reasons for our decision. Reading Frances Moore Lappé’s Diet for a Small Planet, I was appalled to discover that grain in developing countries had been replaced by livestock to satisfy the demand for meat in countries like the U.S. Barry, meanwhile, was outraged by the descriptions of animal treatment in Peter Singer’s 1976 classic, Animal Liberation. We weren’t vegans (we hadn’t heard the term yet) and we didn’t even call ourselves vegetarians, since we occasionally ate fish. Like other non-meat-eaters I knew, we consumed copious amounts of quiche and other rich, cheesy meals, oblivious to the fact that dairy can be as damaging to the body and the planet as beef. According to Grist, an environmental online newsletter, one pound of cheese requires 10 pounds — about 5 quarts — of milk from a cow that emits methane, not to mention the

26  NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 19, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

grains that go into feeding the cow. Almost 40 years later, I’m grateful for our decision. Research consistently shows that a low-meat diet reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers and even early death. On the fitness front, the belief that endurance athletes who don’t eat meat are at a disadvantage has been debunked. While neither Barry nor I would call ourselves endurance athletes, we’re as active now as the day we married. To celebrate my 60th birthday, we hiked 200 miles across England along the spectacular Coast-toCoast trail, and every summer we backpack in the Trinities and the Marbles. Beyond the health benefits, eating less food from animal sources is economical. And it helps the planet. What’s not to like? I’m occasionally asked if I miss meat. I remember fondly my college days in New Orleans, when my friend Jennifer and I would hitchhike from the Tulane campus to Bud’s Broiler, the best hamburger joint in the city. Seated at one of Bud’s funky wooden tables and devouring our hamburgers, with Arlo Guthrie thrumming “The City of New Orleans” on the jukebox, beat dinner at Galatoire’s or Commander’s Palace or any other legendary New Orleans restaurant, hands down. The thought of hamburgers rarely crosses my mind but I still swoon over the smell of bacon, and Barry salivates whenever he smells steak. No surprise — we humans are indiscriminate omnivores, wired to opportunistically eat anything. But I’m already overwhelmed by the plant-based choices on the market, with all the new or rediscovered ones that keep cropping up. Between tofu and tempeh, grains, nuts, beans and legumes, I barely have time to keep up with the plants, let alone think about meat.


Best Asian Food in Humboldt!

All that said, if meat had played a regal role on my dinner plate all my cooking life, dethroning it would be no small matter and I wouldn’t know where to begin. I’d recommend starting with the lowly, lovely chickpea, or garbanzo bean, common to African, Indian, Greek and Middle Eastern cuisines. Chickpeas are the world’s second most widely grown legume after soybeans and one of the earliest cultivated foods (7,500-year-old remains have been found in the Middle East). According to one anthropological theory, it was one of eight “founder crops,” the first known domesticated plants in the world that form the origin of agriculture. Chickpeas are technically not a bean but a legume, which is lower in starch. They’re cholesterol-free, a good source of fiber and protein, and highly versatile: You can find a slew of recipes on the Internet that contain chickpeas combined with peanut butter, almond butter or sesame tahini. Many Americans are introduced to chickpeas through hummus but you can also find chickpeas in soups, stews, patties, burgers, snacks, dressings and even cookies. The stew recipe below is seriously tasty, simple and quick — a perfect starter for the cook who wants to reduce meat intake. Build to edge of the document Margins are just a safe area

Chickpea and Peanut Stew 1 onion, chopped 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 4 garlic cloves, minced 1 zucchini, chopped 1 bell pepper, any color, chopped 1 cup vegetable broth or water 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed 5-6 tablespoons peanut butter 1 16-ounce can diced tomatoes 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon coriander powder 1 teaspoon turmeric Salt and pepper to taste In a large saucepan, warm the oil over medium to medium-high heat and cook the onion until translucent and almost soft. Add the garlic, zucchini, bell pepper, cumin, coriander and turmeric. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the chickpeas, tomatoes and peanut butter. Once these are incorporated, add only as much water or broth as needed for a stew-like consistency. Bring the pot to a boil and then cover and let it simmer about 10 minutes. Serve alone or with rice. ● Louisa Rogers is a leadership trainer, writer and renowned cook, at least in her own home.

To Our Health By Andy Powell

T

o be healthy, wealthy and wise. Now not many folks know this, but music can help us achieve two of those goals, and I’ll give you a half-second to ponder which one music rarely helps out with. I heard an interview on KHSU not too long ago with Jeffrey Smoller of Making Headway, which helps those recovering from brain injuries, and he mentioned a list of some of the many health and wellness benefits of music. I wasn’t surprised music has positive effects; it’s the reason I’ve chased music around most of my life. However, I was a little surprised about some of the specific benefits. We all know that music can be relaxing and although relaxation is a goal in itself, there are a myriad of health benefits that trickle down. A study out of Austria has shown that classical music not only helped subjects relax but it helped their neck, back and shoulders. Apparently, slow rhythms can slow down our heartbeat and breathing, and lower our blood pressure. This is turn relieves muscle tension in our back, neck, etc. Soothing music can also relieve psychological tension in the mind by relaxing us and directing our attention, let’s say, from the stress from people driving 50 mph northbound on 101 between Sunset and the 299 E on-ramp. Many of us make music an integral part of our workout routines and cringe at the idea of exercising without tunes in our ears. Whether it helps you set a pace while running or drowns out the over-the-top Neanderthal grunting in your gym, there are obvious health benefits here. Music can release endorphins, which can in turn help increase our endurance. Music can also simply distract us from the pain of doing crunches. The list goes on. Music is credited with helping with memory loss, childbirth and depression. One thing Smoller pointed out that I found fascinating is that not only does listening to music stimulate large portions of our brains, but playing music is like a full-on brain exercise igniting large portions of our “right” and “left” brains and strengthening the intercommunication between those two hemispheres. Now does that necessarily make us wise? That’s a bit harder to quantify but when

I think about lyrical music that comes from another person’s perspective or tilts at a universal one, music can get us out of our own heads, so to speak, connecting us with the human condition and fostering a deep sense of empathy. To gain experience and knowledge from others may not be wisdom in itself but it’s a first step.

Holly Bowling pays piano tribute to the Grateful Dead at HumBrews on Sunday, Jan. 22 at 8 p.m

Thursday

The Jam in Arcata is hosting a benefit for Syrian refugee families in Greece. A good cause no doubt, and you can read more about how it got so specific in the Calendar. Helping raise funds this evening for an early 5 p.m. show is Altar Tones joined by The Brothers Norton, Arkaingelle and Ultra Secret. It’s $10 for this benefit. Up in Blue Lake at the Mad River Brewery Tap Room you’ll find the Compost Mountain Boys doing their things at 6 p.m. for free. For you Volkswagen drivers, take it easy when you leave the joint, OK?

Friday

It’s Inauguration Day and drinking alone at the house won’t make you feel any better, so get on out there and commiserate with your unpatriotic friends and remember the good things in life. See? Music can be healthy. Humboldt Steelhead Days are upon us — and have been for 19 days now — but they’re holding a kickoff party tonight at the Mad River Brewery. The party gets going around 5:30 p.m. for you anglers out there (I don’t even know what that means) and the music, courtesy of Cadillac Ranch will be ready for your earholes around 6 p.m. It’s free to get in and you can find out more about the Steelhead Days, which goes through March if I’m not mistaken. I’m not manly enough for fishing myself, and I personally stay away from eating things that defecate where they breathe, but hey, that’s just me. We do have more steelhead this time of year than anywhere else in California. And did you know that a steelhead is a rainbow trout that leaves its ocean home and comes back to the freshwater to

32  North Coast Journal • Thursday, Jan. 19, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

spawn? I wonder at what point through the brackish waters of the estuaries — sounds like I know what I’m talking about huh? — that a rainbow trout can officially be considered a steelhead. Now let’s say this rainbow trout crosses said salty threshold and becomes a steelhead according to us. If I were to pick that steelhead up and throw it back in the ocean, would it go back to being a rainbow trout, or would it be forever ostracized by its ocean friends as a steelhead — a fish out of freshwater?

Saturday

Humboldt’s own Pink Floyd tribute, Money, makes its (full disclosure: our) debut at the Redwood Curtain Brewery tonight at 8 p.m. The bass player tells me that the range typically begins in the early Syd years and works all the way up to songs from The Final Cut, but tonight after some of the hits, the band’s going to pull out the entire Animals album. All that for free. At the same time, the Arcata Playhouse has Nina Gerber and Chris Webster playing some “originals, tasteful covers, soulful ballads, jazzy tunes and sweet folk.” Webster is the lead vocalist in Mumbo Gumbo and Gerber has played with Kate Wolf and Dave Alvin, among others. Tickets are $15 for this one. L.A. rockers The Heavy Pets blend rhythm and blues, jazz, funk, disco, reggae and rock ‘n’ roll. Apparently they’re not classical or oompah fans but that’s still a wide range to cover. Anyway, they’ve been together about 12 years now and have a string of EPs out, but are in the process of recording their second LP. Catch some songs from that upcoming release tonight at Humboldt Brews at 9:30 p.m. for $10. Brother Gow opens up the show.

Sunday

If you feel a hankerin’ for singing with your neighbors and/or strangers, Song Village should be your destination this afternoon. Seabury Gould hosts at the Westhaven Center for the Arts at 1 p.m. This is basically a venue to sing folk songs with friends. It’s free, so you’ve got nothing to lose except your frown. You may have seen classically trained pianist Holly Bowling the last time she stopped by Humboldt Brews. At that show, from what I recall, she was paying piano tribute to one of her favorite bands, Phish. In essence, she’s doing a similar solo piano tribute thing tonight but to jam masters the Grateful Dead. So you’ll probably hear “Unbroken Chain,” “Franklin’s Tower,” and “Uncle John’s Band,” all given the classy treatment. She’s been doing such a great job with these Dead tunes that both Phil and Bobby have invited her to jam with them. Check it out at HumBrews at 8 p.m. for $10.

Monday

I got word from Anna Hamilton that she’s no longer doing her Tuesday night gigs at the Palm Lounge but has instead moved to the Clam Beach Inn on Mondays. So, seeing as how it’s Monday, she’ll be there at 6 p.m. tonight doing her thing for free. Check her out at the new gig digs. l Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online. Bands and promoters, send your gig info, preferably with a high-res photo or two, to music@northcoastjournal.com. Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Album of the Week Show on KWPT 100.3 FM Tuesdays at 6 p.m. Health recipe of the week: two parts music, one part kale and one part butter.

The Best Medicine

The Same Boat

In her political and much publicized speech at this year’s Golden Globe Awards, Meryl Streep quoted her late friend Carrie Fisher: “Take your broken heart and turn it into art.” Circumstances may be what they are but we are not powerless to bring about the world we want to see, become the tribe we wish to be. Local comedian Sam Wingspan and Calder Johnson, artistic director of North Coast Repertory Theatre, are two such souls doing what they can. They have collaborated to bring Humboldt a monthly series of stand-up shows called “Comedy Comes Home,” from which all proceeds are donated to the local charities and nonprofits that may be threatened by the Trump administration. The first show, Sunday, Jan. 22 at 9:30 p.m. at North Coast Repertory Theatre ($5-$10 donation), brings local comedians Sam Wingspan, Dutch Savage, James Stephen, John McClurg and Jessica Grant to the stage and benefits the Natural Resources Defense Council. “Comedy and shows are what I know I can do to raise money to help our amazing county,” Wingspan says. “I hope through these shows to primarily entertain but also to inspire others to use whatever many varied talents they have at their disposal to enrich our world as well. If we all work toward our strengths and apply it to our surroundings, I know that we can all thrive together as one community.” If the world is going to hell in a gilded, billion-dollar basket, we might as well laugh on our way down. Or put our talent and dollars to good use and rise up. — Kali Cozyris

In January of 2016, Sierra Leash traveled from Humboldt to Greece to volunteer with refugees fleeing to Europe from Syria and other war-torn countries. One year later she reports, “There are over 62,000 refugees stuck in Greece awaiting asylum or relocation, often living in unsafe and unsanitary conditions.” Since returning home, Leash has continued to work with and support independent volunteers and grassroots organizations in Greece, and now brings the opportunity to our own community. Rhythm for Refugees, a benefit for Syrian refugee families in Greece, takes place Thursday, Jan. 19 at the Jam, starting with an all-ages portion at 5 p.m. and 21-and-up after 9 p.m. ($5-$15 sliding). The event features live music by Altar Tones, The Brothers Norton, Arkaingelle and Ultra Secret with early performances by DJ Rotten, State of Mind and Abba Roots. There will be guest speakers, henna art, a silent auction and space to write a note or draw a picture to be delivered to refugee camps next month. Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Shelter House Project in northern Greece. The project provides studio apartments and support for 24 families who were previously living in refugee camps, a community cultural center for all children in the area and outreach for refugees living rough on the streets of Thessaloniki. Rhythm for Refugees is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy live music, art and community while supporting an important humanitarian cause. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, “We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now.” — Kali Cozyris

Notice To U.S. Government of INTENT TO REVOKE CONSENT This declaration will be delivered to Congressman Huffman’s local office (317 Third St., Suite 1, Eureka, CA 95501) and mailed to the offices of Senators Feinstein and Harris (Office of U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein: One Post Street, Suite 2450, San Francisco, CA 94104; Office of U.S. Senator Kamala Harris: 50 United Nations Plaza, Suite 5584, San Francisco, CA 94102). We encourage others to add their names in the space provided and to do the same.

Recognizing the outcome of the 2016 United States’ presidential election was determined by Electoral College without support of the popular vote, in an election where voter access may have been unfairly limited, and where some candidates, in their pursuit of the highest office held in the most powerful nation on the planet, engaged in conduct unbecoming, demonstrating unfitness for that station, we, the undersigned, affirm the following. The foundation of freedom, justice, and peace in the world, as stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (adopted in 1948 by the U.N. General Assembly, to which the United States was both signatory and guiding member), requires the recognition of “the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family” and that “Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms … without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.” Furthermore, we recognize that the laws of nature serve ecological equilibrium and that presently that balance is imperiled, calling for leadership in stewardship and sustainability of planetary resources. Therefore, we resolve that “whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends,” we shall not consent.

The Bostonians Live by Night and Patriots Day By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

LIVE BY NIGHT. Up to this point, Ben Affleck’s scorecard for directing is marked with three wins and zero losses: Gone Baby Gone (2007) used local color and emotional realism to take a taut little detective story down some literal and figurative dark alleys; The Town (2010), again using Boston as a backdrop, made tribute to the legacy of bank robbery cinema while also digging into the complex stuff of loyalty and the eventuality of violence in the outlaw life; Argo (2012) won a Best Picture Oscar and made good on the promise of those earlier works, turning a human drama about the 1979/80 Iran hostage crisis into a pacey adventure story/paean to the movies. That movie also became Affleck’s biggest hit as a director, and apparently bought him the privilege of choosing whatever he wanted for his next project.

Live by night and sleep in your shirt

On the face of it, Live By Night seems like a compelling, even sensible selection. As with Gone Baby Gone, Affleck adapted the screenplay from a Dennis Lehane novel (though this marks his first solo writing credit), this one a crime saga charting the fortunes of a WWI veteran turned bootlegger as he moves from hometown Boston to the desolate low country of Tampa, Florida. It’s rich material, full of double-crosses, lost love, divided loyalties, racism, religiosity and meditations on the mundanity and ugliness of violence. And therein lies the problem: there’s a lot to cover and in trying to get to all of it, Affleck dilutes the potency of the material’s themes, arriving finally at a movie that, despite its attributes, feels overlong and under-punctuated. Joe Coughlin (Affleck) returns home from the war intent on never taking orders from anybody, which, of course, means he becomes a stick-up kid. He and his little crew make a comfortable living ripping off card games and the like. Joe has to complicate things by carrying on an affair with the moll of one of the city’s kingpins and then robbing said kingpin. In quick succession, said moll Emma Gould (Sienna Miller) informs on Joe to said kingpin Albert White (Robert Glenister) and a bank robbery goes bad, leaving several policemen dead. Joe takes some literal and metaphorical beatings; his police superintendent father, Thomas (Brendan Gleeson), intervenes, coercing the right people so Joe only serves three years. Post-incarceration, Joe approaches White’s rival Maso Pescatore (Remo Girone) for a job. Maso

sends Joe to Tampa to streamline the supply and production end of his liquor operation. This turns out to be a good fit: Joe boosts revenue, makes a name for himself in Ybor City, falls in love with the sultry Graciela (Zoe Saldana) and brokers a promising casino deal to ensure the fortunes of himself and his associates, come the end of Prohibition. Of course, he also runs afoul of the local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan and gets embroiled in the family drama of the local sheriff (Chris Cooper) and his would-be-starlet-turned-heroin-addict-prostitute-turned-evangelical-preacher daughter (Elle Fanning). And that really only brings us to the middle of the second act. Adapting a novel, particularly a well-crafted one, is a tricky enterprise: It requires an almost cruelly keen sense of economy and an understanding that what works on the page may not play on screen. Also, and this is more subjective, it demands its own, independent creative spark. The most successful adaptations draw structure and inspiration from the source material, but take on a life of their own, filtered as they are through another person’s sensibility and set forth in an entirely different medium. Though I have to admit that I haven’t read Lehane’s novel, I can say that Live By Night feels like an attempt to get it all in, to truncate hundreds of pages of plot intricacies and character development into a two-hour movie. It’s a valiant effort, and much of what comes through is successful: The created world is densely detailed, beautifully photographed by Robert Richardson and peopled by full-blooded, independently

motivated (well-acted) characters. But in the end, it’s just far too much. The pacing, so deliberate, even plodding in the early going, requires a sprint to the finish to address all the strands of plot previously laid out. And the violence, of which there is plenty, is staged in a curious, offhand, almost inconsequential way. I think the underlying idea is that violence and death are distasteful to our protagonist — unpleasant necessities that don’t deserve much discussion. In the context of a movie, though, moments that seem like they should be more impactful feel under-developed and neglected. And that points to Live By Night’s greater shortcoming: In striving to accomplish too much, it loses sight of the small things that could make the story resonate. PG. 104m. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK.

PATRIOTS’ DAY. Some could criticize Peter Berg and Mark Wahlberg for making spectacle of tragedy. I suppose that’s fair, but I think it requires some discussion. Their last two collaborations, Lone Survivor (2013) and Deepwater Horizon (2016) are indeed torn from the headlines, both male-centric action stories about small groups in crisis. Ditto Patriots’ Day, which focuses on the effort to apprehend the 2013 Boston Marathon bombers, told from a law enforcement perspective. To me, though, the experience of the art should come first, a political dissection of it second, if at all. And all three of these movies are compelling, well-crafted and seemingly heartfelt. Particularly after the lugubrious, over-burdened experience of Live By Night, Patriots’ Day felt refreshing-

ight about the time the U.S. government issued its first dietary guidelines in 1980, obesity and its evil twin, Type 2 diabetes, took off. In 1950, 12 percent of us were obese; 30 years later, that figure had increased marginally to 15 percent. But between 1980 and 2000, the rate shot up to 35 percent.
